2ND SUICIDE LYRICS

1. Children Of Atom

[Instrumental]

2. Destination Demise

A step taken - one of the remaining few
In haste of the end all senses abloom

In a moment, now lost in absurdity
The tables were turned
Cold caress of inevitability
Take me neverwhere - a fabled foreverthere

Of stalwart and will possessed
The monster nurtured within
A mere husk of the former entity
A solemn accord to thee - The resolve's abandoned me

Tonight
The wolves are gathering
Inside
Premonitions of shattering

Fear unfathomed spreads its flame now
Unquenchable stark
Let it scorch the sickness and woe away
Hallowed the pain it brings - sever the futile wings

Listen closely to this discordia
A sonata of dread and throe
The tick-tocks that grow few in number
A journey I must embark - Show me the path to dark

Tonight
The wolves are gathering
Inside
Premonitions of shattering

From the nether reaches of the mind collect the darkest resolve
Count the blessings that never were, count the blessings none
Lay down, six feet to the ground, curse the grimacing heaven above 
Stand strong, stand forever tall, prepare for the final fall

As the benign black ascends
From the soul springs forth
Color the walls, color the doors
Color the world all gone

3. Dystopia

A senseless mass of forms in blind struggling
Faces blithered, worn, in an effort to remain
A molten dawn breaks in a myriad sick hues
Colorless, ill radiance, chaos, catastrophe

This premonition
World born of fire

An inhuman, foul-breathed gale blows
Burning ash and torn debris scatters in the wind
Like the scream of an anguished black god
Tears through the earth, burnt flesh and shattered bone

We have come this far
Soon - there is no turning back

No turning back

The deeds of past men
Laughing well in their shallow graves
Rise and fall of the infamous wise ape
Obituary of a global scale

So pass the seasons
Indistinct from one another
So unfolds the flow of time
Nihility unveiled

Nothing remains

4. Silent Light

Silence and light
Across distance and time
Vague remainders of the past

Violent darkness
A state devoid of calm
Crumbling what's left
To lean upon

Staring into the deep waters dark
To the silent lights of long ago
Longing for what is no more

Fire and ice
They govern here now
Deadly remainders of today

Creeping hours
Passing like aeons one by one
Oh they, will they ever cease

Staring into the deep waters dark
To the silent lights of long ago
Longing for what is no more

Beware, hold your ground
Damnation on the threshold
Weep not for the lost
For loss is all we have

Silence and light
Across distance and time
Vague remainders of the past

Fire and ice
They govern here now
Oh they, they will never cease

5. Icarean Tomb

Blind, broken, wings burnt to ashened coal
Obliterated soul on a broken throne
Severed from the ties of life and love

Of mirth and joy I drank once deep
A swollen mirage of endless release
Now break the spell in a violent glee
Blood wash away the weak

Here resides Icarean tomb
Inside a dead, cold Cyclopean womb

Left me stranded on the isle of chastening
Without the will to live
For the errs and misdeeds, the wantons and grieves
The reprisal is at hand

Here resides Icarean tomb
Inside a dead, cold Cyclopean womb

On the battered shore the tides decimate
A crimson tinted twilight wake
White flashes on the endless waterbed
Heavens bellow an empty threat

Of stories never told
Seeds of slumber, older than stone
Springs forth a valiant beast
The shame and lust released
